  I slowly walk over the battlefield, scavenging intact arrows while everyone else if recovering their breath.

  When Rhonda suggests leaving, I first clean up and put the arrow into the quiver, then approach everyone.

— Agreed.

OOC:
Stalwart status: 8/25 and poisoned. Stalwart can neutralize poison on two people and will do others before himself. Alternately he can heal up to 10 HP.

OOC: Duke has 4 spell slots. A cure spell removes the poison effect?

Yorrick shifts back into his humanoid form.
I've got healing for those that need it. I'm not feeling great, but the poison didn't seem to have much effect on me.
OOC:
I've got 4 level 1 and 1 level 2 slot left that can be used on cure wounds. Sitting at 10hp.

I don't know where I'm right now but we need the heal fast to able to survive further attacks.

Stalwart realizes how much the poison is clouding his thinking and stiffening his joints. He regretfully realizes he's not much help to the others in this condition. Stalwart concentrates on himself, willing the poison out of his body. He coughs, then spits black liquid on the cavern floor multiple times. When he's done, he wipes his mouth with his sleeve. "What is wrong with these spiders? We're here to help. Maybe that demon spider enchanted them."

His brain starts to clear. "We need to check on Oli. She led us in here -- I think we'll need her to get us out."
OOC:
Stalwart expends 5 points to neutralize the poison.

I need an extra set of eyes. He takes his shield off before and tries to coax something actually out of it. This seems rather strange, but in a few moments later a creature of fire comes forth from it. You can feel its heat telling it is real and surprising that it doesn't seem to burn Duke.


(Hello phoenix)

The light that comes off of the phoenix is very intense and lights up the whole chamber. Looking about you do see a dark shadow above the spider's web, possibly indicating another exit from thr chamber, but whether it leads back to the surface is another matter entirely.
OOC:
We still have an unconscious druid at the base of the web.

You can make a medicine check to ascertain her condition.

What would you like to do with her?

OOC:
I, and thus Yorrick, didn't realize Oli had gone unconscious.
Upon realization Oli is unconscious, Yorrick rushes over to give some healing.

He then starts giving out the healing that he has to those in need.
Duke, do you need healing? Or have you got it under control? I've only got so much on me and I'm trying to save something for a little later.
OOC:
This fight has almost tapped Yorrick completely.

Duke strokes his pet Phoenix. Can you fly about here and see if there is another way out? While it is off, Duke casts a small healing spell up on himself. I'm good and have a little healing if others need.

Oli regains consciousness and says
Thank Mother Nature you guus managed to kill that thing. Where in the nine hells did that come from?

Her question seems rhetorical. She continues and you're not certain whether she is talking to you or simply thinking out loud.

Well, that explains the spider corpses. Giant Spiders, like all spiders, are matriarchical by nature. That demon must have come and killed the females in order to establish dominance over the males.

But then it mated with them.
She points at the clusters of blue eggs. I'll have to take care of those. I apologise if any of you are squeamish, but I assure you, this must be done.

Then she transforms into an elephant and tramples all over the egg sacks. You see, several baby demon spiders attempt to stop her, climbing all over her back and biting her, but once she is done smashing the eggs, she shifts back into her gnome form and you hear a thunderous blast.

The baby spider demons are sent flying away and none of them get back up.

Then she turns to you all.

Now that it's over, Come. The spiders know me and shouldn't give us any more trouble.

However, before you can leave, Duke's phoenix flys over, grabs his arm, and tries to pull him towards the spider's web and the other exit.

Oli's eyes glaze over as she looks at the phoenix. Wow! I've never seen a phoenix before! What do you call her?
Feb 24, 2019 1:24 pm
Duke watches a bit shocked as Oli takes action. Smashing spiders doesn't bother Duke at all as he seems to have taken a dislike to them.

Dukes is a touch lost by all that did happen not to mention where he is since last he knew he had been traveling and sleep to wake to all this. When the Phoenix returns, Duke smiles at as he watches it fly back.

He pets her a moment to calm her down, She doesn't have a name, but seems she wish me to leave here.

OOC:
15/35hp.

Ronda could use a bit of healing if there's still any available. If not, no biggie - she's a tough girl.
Feb 24, 2019 4:54 pm
Lets see what a cure wounds does. Not much but edges you up some. Duke has very little left now.

"Thanks, pal!" Ronda says to Duke in a gravelly voice "How did you say you ended up as a spider snack?"

Duke doesn't seem to be at all put off by Ronda's appearance. Seem he must have seen half-orc and/or other non-human humanoids.

Spiders took me in the night as I was sleeping outdoors. I woke up here cocooned. Not sure of time either. You look to be a fine warlike soul.

OOC:
So what's the consensus team? Back the way you came from or explore the other passage. Let me know here and we'll go with a majority decision.
Feb 26, 2019 6:52 am
OOC:
19/25
"Thank you, Yorrick. You came through once again. Oli, I am glad we could help the spiders. Perhaps they can reciprocate and help us protect the town."

"I think we should follow where the phoenix wants to go. I trust magical creatures."
Feb 26, 2019 9:34 am
OOC:
Moon is waiting for the majority to decide. She wasn't very disturbed by what occurred as it didn't affect her directly.
Feb 26, 2019 10:28 am
I would say that is a wise choice as well. Duke leads off in the direction with phoenix.
